Missouri Payday Loans
Understanding the regulations for cash advance lending is contingent upon each individual state. Payday lending in the state of Missouri is governed by a set of law that was enacted in 2002. Unlike other states, Missouri does not place a limit on the number of loans a borrower can have at one time. The state also allows for up to six extensions on loans, which is much more generous that other areas. Lenders, such as those in Kansas City and Springfield, are also allowed to charge fees and interest of up to 75 percent of the loan principal. Criminal action is not allowed against borrowers unless the default involved a closed bank account or a stop-payment on a check. Other fees can be charged for non-sufficient funds, the cost of a lawyer and court filing expenses.
Maximum Principal
Consumers can borrow up to $500 through a cash advance.
Length of Loan
Loan terms can range from 14 to 31 days.
Rollovers
Extensions and rollovers are granted up to six times, but the borrower must pay at least 5 percent towards the loan principal each time.
Fees
Cash advance companies may not charge over 75 percent of the original loan amount. This means that a finance fee for a two-week loan could be $75 for every $100 borrowed.
APR
The APR for a payday loan of $100 with a two week term is 1980 percent.
